Millisecond pulsar with the highest rotation speed discovered in the galactic field
An article published in “The Astrophysical Journal” describes the discovery of PSR J0952-0607, the millisecond pulsar with the highest rotation speed in the galactic field. A team of researchers used the Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR) radio telescope to investigate high-energy sources detecting this pulsar that spins at over 42,000 rotations per minute, 707 per second.
